showing section 508 compliance?  Section 508 requires that electronic and
information technology developed, procured, maintained, or used by the
Federal Government be accessible to people with disabilities in a
comparable manner that it is to those who do not have disabilities. If
not, would it be possible to get a statement from OpenBSD outlining how
the operating system provides comparable access to information for people
with disabilities?  We are currently using OpenBSD for all of our servers
providing network services.

i would say it mostly doesn't apply.  nearly everything refers to
applications providing some sort of consistent graphical interface.
openbsd itself is essentially text only.

for example: "A well-defined on-screen indication of the current focus
shall be provided that moves among interactive interface elements as
the input focus changes."  this depends totally on what window manager
you pick.  there are hundreds of choices.
